For IoT to work, governments should be playing a bigger role in connecting things to the Internet.

Stanton said the UK government is keen to help startups like hers but claimed that it moves too slowly.

"I think there is a will," she said. "But the pace they move at for me as a startup is too slow. Six months is a lifetime. We have to move. That kind of connection isn't there in terms of understanding the pace."
